This is why every app that touches money should be peer to peer. DoorDash would be an escrow, but unable to unilaterally seize the funds.

Escrow is third party, second party can't be escrow. In this case door dash can't really be an escrow as it will be second party.

In this case I'd consider the first two parties to be the seller and buyer, with DD as a middleman.

Ok then thats still not peer-to-peer, it’s an escrow service.

p2p escrow typically requires 2 of 3 signatures, not 1 of 1.
